Abstract :
Urticaria is a common and challenging skin disorder. Diagnosis
and treatment of urticaria is not limited to the field of dermatology.
General physicians, allergologists and clinical immunologists are
also commonly involved in the management of patients with
urticaria.
One of the missions of the Iranian Society of Dermatology
is to develop strategies in order to provide the best possible
management for patients suffering from dermatological conditions.
To accomplish this mission, the Society assigned a committee
to search and critically appraise the recent research evidence
and available guidelines to develop a clinical practice guideline
concerning diagnosis and treatment of urticaria.
